Early Childhood Screening

If Your Child is 3, it's Time to Screen!The early childhood years from birth to age 5 are an important time of rapid learning and growth. Early Childhood Screening is a state-required quick check of how your child is growing and developing. Between the ages of 3 and 5, screening can detect possible health or learning concerns, so that children can get help before they start school. All of the information from your child's Early Childhood Screening is important to his/her school success. After the screening, you will know how your child is growing, developing and learning.

Early Childhood Screening covers:

Immunization records

Hearing and vision

Large and small muscles

Height and weight

Thinking, language and communication

Social and emotional development

Who needs to be screened?All children who are 3-5 years old and are not currently enrolled in kindergarten.
